Inspired by the patterns and colours of Shetland knitting, the fashion historian, author, designer and publisher Susan Crawford began a journey into the rich heritage of Shetland knitwear, and in particular the pieces held in the Shetland Museum archive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eWith the encouragement of Dr Carol Christiansen, the museum's curator, Susan undertook the task of carefully selecting the most stunning and original designs from the 1920s to the 1950s, transcribed them stitch by stitch, and has here recreated them for the modern knitter, in stunning detail - a collection of 27 patterns for garments and accessories for women and men in a wide range of sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eIn combination with the collection of 27 comprehensive patterns for garments and accessories are carefully researched essays exploring the stories behind each piece and honouring their creators – some famous, some forgotten. Photographed by Susan on the island of Vaila, situated off the west coast of Shetland, this book also celebrates the untameable beauty of Shetland itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eCompiled with Susan's trademark attention to detail, this book is a fabulous treasury of Shetland knitting design and a valuable insight into its textile traditions. It offers you the chance to delve into a fascinating era for knitwear design and to bring it to life in stitch-perfect vintage style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe Vintage Shetland Project is a celebration of stunning design, beautiful knitting and the people of Shetland themselves, during a time of local change, international conflict and revolution in the knitting industry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*PLEASE NOTE THAT THESE ARE A THIRD EDITION HARDBACK COPY AND HAS MODERATE SIGNS OF DAMAGE TO THE COVER AND THE SPINE.
